Please note: Data in this release was revised and updated on 8 December 2020. For data for January to June 2020 it was found that changes in payment processing meant that monthly cost data for the Chronic Medication Service was not fully reported. For example, for data for March 2020 the total Chronic Medication Service payment was reported as £489,617, the correct figure was £3,003,147. On average per Community Pharmacy the payment was reported as £390, the average figure for corrected data was £2,385. Note that the Final Payments measure is calculated separately and was not affected by this error, and the Chronic Medication Service payment represented 2.3% of the Final Payments to Community Pharmacies for March 2020.

Please note also that for data for 2020, data on the Chronic Medication Service has been renamed to reflect the service being updated to the Medicines: Care and Review Service. Data column names for data on registrations, items and payments have been updated, please see the Data Dictionary below.
